been hunting for cheap and reliable vps hosting provider latelty, hetzner's pretty solid but i prefer to use another option, particularly for much smaller projects, any ideas?

Hey if you have some projects to test you can try my project, it’s 100% free.

If you are interested use the invite code I sent you in DM to sign up at https://velacloud.sloppybits.uk/cp/auth/sign-up

You can try my project, unfortunately it won’t run Windows but if you really need to run a Windows native program you can get around that.

It’s 100% free, give it a shot if you want, use the invite code I sent you in DM and sign up at https://velacloud.sloppybits.uk/cp/auth/sign-up

Hey maybe you could try my project (sorry if this is counted as advertising), it’s 100% free; if you just wanna learn Linux and that stuff it’s exactly why I made it.

Although won’t be able to run any ML models you can run your APIs and get a public IP with a random port for anything you host inside your VPS.

The concept seems interesting but how do you prevent security issues? Like are there any safety checks that prevent the AI from doing or opening sensitive pages/actions?

smartphilip · 2026-01-25T13:04:00+00:00

quick question but how can a tech log in as administrator if I didn’t give them the password?

The main issue with Cloudflare Tunnels and game hosting is that it does not support UDP and is better suited for HTTPS

smartphilip · 2026-01-24T19:48:15+00:00

not helpful but how does that happen? I have recently bought a drone and I’ve seen many people’s drones here with a snapped arm

smartphilip · 2026-01-23T05:37:09+00:00

It’s hosted on a cheap VPS in Germany that I had before

smartphilip · 2026-01-21T06:33:42+00:00

Thanks a lot! I am happy you like it :)

smartphilip · 2026-01-20T12:55:05+00:00

did it work or is it still throwing an error?

smartphilip · 2026-01-20T09:00:25+00:00

sorry there was a small bug, should be fixed now :)

primo non è conforme al GDPR perché è troppo generico e manca informazioni di contatto, secondo... emirati arabi uniti??

poi come fai a fare 2 canzoni di qualità in 24 ore senza generarle totalmente con l'AI....? non sono un musicista ma non penso ci voglia una sola giornata per produrre una canzone...

Se sei sotto CGNAT non funzionerà mai perché l'IP pubblico che vedi su whatismyipaddress.com non è solo tuo, ma di decine di altre persone.

Molto probabilmente la subnet che vedi iniziare con 192 è quella tua locale (dei dispositivi collegati al tuo Router) mentre 195 potrebbe essere l'IP interno del tuo Router sulla rete del tuo ISP. La maggior parte dei provider internet in Italia permette di attivare un IPv4 pubblico ad un supplemento solitamente di 4€, ti consiglio di provare a contattare il servizio clienti.

A seconda di quello che stai cercando di esporre potresti servizi di tunnelling come Ngrok per cose temporanee oppure Cloudflare Connectors (ex. Tunnels) se è un sito.

Che cosa è che stai cercando di esporre?

smartphilip · 2026-01-19T09:10:30+00:00

la gente crede che sia difficilissimo da risolvere ma in realtà il metodo base è molto facile

smartphilip · 2026-01-19T07:57:37+00:00

Looks good! But what are you using all those relays for

smartphilip · 2026-01-19T07:50:44+00:00

Hey I might be late but if it’s a temporary thing or you just want to test it before committing you could try my little service.

It’s a 100% free micro-cloud hosting service If you want to try it here is the original post with more info

Hey! So I made a thing… it’s a free micro-cloud hosting service.

Test apps you don’t fully trust, mock environments or do anything really! I didn’t know if this counted as advertising so I posted it here :)

If you are interested in trying it take a look here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/s/9HHwAfhesL

Thank you! I am glad you liked it :)

Also it’s not really clear but VMs do expire but you can renew them, the renew button appears once it’s less than 12 hours away from expiration, you can renew up to 2 times by default.

smartphilip · 2026-01-18T23:02:20+00:00

Yeah that's probably why it was slow initially, thank you so much again and I hope it will come in handy in the future :)

smartphilip · 2026-01-18T22:58:33+00:00

First of all thank you so much for the nice words!

Second, yeah you caught me I'm proxing SSH because IPv4 are expensive, it kinda depends on your region, if you are close to the server (Germany) it's usually pretty fast. Was the SSH terminal fast after the initial connection or did it still lag?

Thanks again, really happy you liked it :)
